Real Women Have Curves lol:)?

  • Okay, so does this mean that slim, petite, small framed, small boned, little women are not REAL WOMEN??? I am 5'1, 105 lbs with a very petite frame...A-B cup, 25 inch waist, 33-34 inch hips...I have 2 children. It amazes me that big women or bigger women have the audacity to get upset if people tell them they need to lose weight or tone up...but will tell someone little like me that I need to eat more or exercise less. NOTE: Just because you are big does not mean you are a Real Woman...it is because you have XX chromosomes and the reproductive organs of a female.


  • Look, if a women has all her female body-parts, shes still a women.
    She could be slim, curvey, heavy, short, tall, have a shaved head or whatever else, the point is she will always be a "real" women no matter what her bulit.


  • don't ever be ashamed about your small frame. i would much rather be with a slender, petite woman than a polar bear anyday.


  • Can a 'real women' be solely described by her physical appearance? I don't think so.


  • its a self esteem thing. thats why theyre hypocrites about it too, they have to assure themselves that theyre "okay". which is sort of ridiculous, theres nothing wrong with them (at least not necessarily), and theres nothing wrong with you cuz youre skinny.

    i personally like the skinny girls ;)
    (note: not a pickup line or come-on)


  • ask any man and they want a women with curves. ask any women and she'll say that your fat and need to lose weight.


  • Maybe the slender women and the curvy women ought to band together and not suggest either is not a "real woman"?


  • Hmm...looking for an honest answer huh? Well, here's my answer...and it is honest, not politically correct!

    I LIKE myself being larger! I hear other women complaining about being "fat and miserable", but let me tell you the quality of my life definitely improved after I turned 40 and was bigger. I wouldn't go back to my "skinny minnie" teens and 20s for all the tea in China!

    In high school and throughout my 20s/early 30s, I was super skinny. I even modeled for a short time. However, I looked and felt like an ugly mouse! I didn't feel at all attractive or sexy, and I was ignored by guys. In fact, I went through all my high school years without a boyfriend while there were girls in my school who were 250 lbs easily and they didn't lack for dates!

    and like a dum dum I married the first guy I slept with...at age 19...and even he'd criticize my body and say I was "too skinny" and I needed to put some meat on my bones!

    Even though I was wearing a size 3 at age 24, I didn't feel pretty or feminine...and it didn't stop me from feeling like none of my clothing looked right on me...and being smaller certainly didn't stop a husband from cheating on me, and eventually walking out on me for someone else 9 years after we got maried.

    When I got divorced, I dropped down from 125 lbs to 100 lbs because I was so heartbroken. So here I pushing 30, a single mom, skinny and I could sure fit into a size 4 pair of jeans....but so what? I was unhappy, I had stomachaches and stress all the damn time, my self-esteem was in the basement...and I remained dateless for several years!

    Well, when I turned 35, things started to change...for the better! I went up to 135 lbs. In two years, at age 37, I was up to 150 lbs...my stomachaches finally went away...my boobs started filling out and I was decidely curvier! Men began to notice me...and I liked that..a lot!

    At age 40, I was up to 210 lbs and I met the man who is still my sweetheart to this day. Yes, he's seen pictures of me when I was younger and thinner...and guess what? he's told me he thought I was "too skinny!" He thinks I'm sexy at the size I am...

    and he's not "the exception" either....

    Last year, and also this year, I traveled on vacation to Malibu, CA ... the land of the tall young-ish skinny gals with long blonde hair and botoxed faces...and discovered to my VERY pleasant surprise that you do not have to look like a supermodel to get masculine attention there! Those Malibu guys just like WOMEN...of all shapes and sizes! Several fellows, one of them a fairly famous rock star, flirted with me while I was there! What a thrill that was...definitely.

    Now, I'm currently 47, and 235 lbs, yes, obese according to some...and I've never felt better about myself and my body in my life! I am big, yes, but I am also very fit...according to my Dr. I DO exercise by riding a bicycle every day to and from my job...3 miles each way. I also, walk, do aerobics and Middle Eastern dance. Oh, I definitely enjoy my food...but I'm also watchful of what I eat (no fast food whatsoever..yuck!)

    but yet, I'm not getting any thinner...but then I'm not interested in going back to being as skinny as I was in my teens and 20s. Don't always presume just because a woman is larger, she's automatically out of shape. I'm living proof that's not the case.

    My point? The reasons why we big girls who are happy with ourselves are speaking up is because we KNOW that being big is not the end of the world....and that life isn't and shouldn't ever be a dress size! This emphasis and pressure that the fashion magazines put on that everyone should be a size 0 is not healthy for anyone.

    So yes, I say REAL women have curves...but REAL WOMEN can also be slender or large...but most importantly, REAL WOMEN love and accept themselves where they're at ... regardless of their size. You can be pretty, feminine and SEXY at any size...it's all in the attitude and in the way you carry yourself. You can do that at size 2...and even at size 32.


  • 33-34 inch hips, you have curves my dear.


  • I'm...not small, but I find the whole, "Real women have curves" thing to be untrue and offensive to women who are not curvy.

    With that said, I really hate it when slimmer women assume that curvy or fat (not the same) women are jealous of them. Did it ever occur to anyone that maybe some people are happy with themselves?

    I do agree that people need to stop telling slim people that they need to 'eat', it's just as offensive as telling a curvy/fat person to stop eating.


  • If you are offended, offend them back. Say; "I eat plenty enough for ONE person, you should try it sometime." The reality is, modern Americans don't eat right and don't exercise enough. Instead of fixing this problem, it is much easier to whine and complain about how "the media projects unhealthy body images" or give you history lessons about how fat used to be vogue. Well, TV actors are extra skinny because television cameras make normal people look fat. (ask Jennifer Lopez, her butt is actually normal sized) Fat women used to be vogue because it demonstrated she was of a high class lineage. She was wealthy enough that she had plenty to eat and didn't have to work. Hence, she sat around and got fat. Also, the "traditional American diet" was designed for an agricultural society that worked at laborious tasks all day. Three eggs, hash browns, toast and a side of bacon is great if you are going to go plow the fields. It is really too much if you are going to go sit in a cubicle all day. However anyone wants to split it, many people are just plain fat. A good number of those people are also obese. Instead of fixing the problem, they choose to ignore it.


  • I'm not big but I'm obese compared to the models on TV...., I'm size 6 to 8. BUT I think that the media and magazines show women as size 0 which is NOT the norm. The average size is 14 for a women in America. Marilyn Monroe was size 12. Most women fall more into that area and therefore we need to reteach our women that whatever size they are is OK. THey are beautiful and the norm. The thinner girls are the exception (and used to be not attractive). The old paintings of beautiful women had rolls. I wish I never had to diet but I work hard to be my size and I think that is silly and we should all be what we are.
    That is why we are saying real women have curves because most women do:)


  • Then tell her shes fat and move on Besides I know very few women who lost the weight they gained from having kids


  • Yep that irritates me too. Real women come in all sorts of sizes. Some heavier women look great if they have the fat in the right places. I'm an athletic build and look terrible even 5 pounds overweight.


  • Sweetheart if you have a 25 inch waist and 34 inch hips then you have curves considering that's almost a 10 inch difference.

    Really I think you're making mountains out of molehills. There is a difference between being curvy and fat. Curvy women can still be petite. Look at Eva Longoria. She's all of 5'2 and probably doesn't weigh 120lbs but she has curves in all the right places.


    The real women have curves thing is just a way for women to try and make themselves feel better because honestly we keep getting the whole body image thing all wrong. We promote super stick thin models as "ideal" and then people ralley against it and now being big is "ideal" to some. Really what is "ideal" is to stay fit and healthy for your height and body frame.


  • those adverts are just a marketing technique to make bigger people buy things (and they work on thiss target group so good for the marketers)


  • People always tell me I'm too thin and ask me if I'm anorectic. It's irritating. I don't ask them if they are obese?


  • Yes, we get it. You're hotter than hot.

    Happy?


  • Are we a little insecure darlin? sure sounds like it.


  • Yes, I understand what you mean. I've always been a very thin, high metabolism, type of person, and people too have asked me if I was bulimic, whether or not I ate, etc. I could not believe that somebody had the balls to actually say that to another person.

    All in all, you just need to ignore them. Accept who you are, and be happy with who you are. Who really cares what they say, and more importantly, why do they care about what your doing in your life so much? They aren't living your life, you are. How is your life any of their business to judge.


  • A-B cup ??? you should consider getting implants. men will notice you more. they will call you flattering things and you will giggle.


  • I read a Readers Digest article that said people are far more healthy if they are not too fat or too thin. So get over yourself. You know people get more flack for being over weight, so stop boo hooing about nothing. Besides, being thin doesn't necessarily mean you eat less, and exercise more.


  • It doesn't mean that you aren't a real woman, it simply means that you take good care of yourself and (I would assume) have good genes.

    I know what you mean though. I have 2 kids (ages 4 and 6 weeks old) and a lot of women tell me I don't look like I've had a baby. I never get any mean comments (aside from being told to eat more, which I don't really consider to be mean) but I can definitely sense some resentment. For the record I'm not even that small...I'm 5'7'' and 140 lbs.

    EDIT: I agree with Imposter. We (as Americans) eat portions entirely too big for what we do. Thus, obesity is common.


  • No, it doesn't mean that. But western culture works very hard to insist that women of size are unhealthy, asexual, lazy, ignorant and unfeminine, and that anyone larger than a size 10 must expect to be socially invisible because she's too big to matter. This phrase was created to counteract that stinkin' thinkin'.

    You yourself, and all who are like you, are beautiful just as you are, and never let anyone tell you otherwise. In the meantime, get off your high horse and stop criticizing. Just because you're tiny does not mean you're a Real Woman . . . you just have XX chromosomes and female reproductive organs.


  • curvy women are attractive


  • We are just trying to make ourselves feel better. We know society wants us to look like you and we cant do it anymore than you can look like us. In a perfect world no one would be judged by their outward appearance but this isnt a perfect world. Just be glad that the majority of nice clothes are made to fit you and try to count your blessings instead of taking offense.
